to act and america to lead in the world? and like so many others in my generation, vietnam really was the impetus that opened up the world to us, even though i never got there. i didn't serve. but it came right into our hometowns and it forced us to look beyond the atlantic and acific and to appreciate that's a complicated world. when you go into that china shop you got to be careful when you throw your weight around. 40 years later vietnam still recalls for me the ultimate purpose of diplomacy, and that's what we're looking at this week at chautauqua. can we work amicably with other countries, with other religions, with other people? what's the best way to avoid the war and conflict that we've seen in our country over the last 10 years? are we capable of meeting the biblical challenge? and it's an important one for all of us, no matter what our faith is, to reflect upon, can we deliver peace among the nations? because that's our job, all of us who live here on earth. and we know in our hearts that it may never be possible.

a jobs bill that says make it in america, manufacture it in america, build the infrastructure of america, strengthens our communities with education and public safety and the rest. instead of that, instead of even passing appropriations bills, the republicans are in this aimless path taking us into chaos as we go into august because in september the moment of truth will be here. the fiscal year will end on september 30 instead of preparing for that, the republicans are once again on this fool's errand of making matters worse for the american people, putting insurance companies in charge of people's health, depriving patients of their rights. this budget challenge that we have is a serious one. we shouldn't be leaving here today because we haven't done the work necessary to prepare us for the end of the fiscal year. instead, we are wasting the taxpayers' time and money. i urge our colleagues to vote no on this legislation. i urge the american people to insist that we get down to the people's business of job creation and to find a budget that will not destroy and question the full faith an

i hate the idea that we will wall off america from central america. the integration of these economies has been such a positive thing. [applause] >> nobody in washington agrees. >> i feel the same way. i just cannot be as irreverent as eve can be about it. i admire so much, the claims spoken. i had an opportunity to speak with president obama. of course, we talked about immigration reform, and i wanted to talk about it from an economic perspective. that was fantastic. i said, the reality is, you would not be "mr. president" were it not for the hispanic vote. never in the history of this country has the hispanic community played such a role in the election of a president. never again will there be an american president without quoting the hispanic vote. i am for you to please begin to change the narrative that has defined the relationship between latin america and the united states. >> not just with mexico, but we open up our opportunities and participate in these markets and everybody benefits. >> every time i hear about it, these are the facts, but e

in america, we use popular primaries. but political parties do have a lot of control over who they recruit to run in primaries. we want to see more political parties setting goals for how many women they will recruit for open seat elections. if they need that goal, potentially being rewarded for it. we are looking within legislatures to see what state legislators themselves can do, and what practices they can implement that would be helpful to women. you have heard issues about women in sweden, who were not pleased with the hours of their legislature meeting. we want state legislatures to look at that. we want them to look at how any of their activities might be biased against women. we are also interested in looking at how women can help each other. in mentoring groups and caucuses, once women get to office, they can springboard into leadership positions and become what they have potential to be. i want our panelists to talk a bit about why they see political structure as important, and how they think that might apply to
